Jazz CD
This CD was prepared for Mr Tony Underwood, a jazz tuba artist. So I kept the colors cool, but not the same. Like the music I wanted the booklet and the other elements to stand on their own. Sticking with one color would only defeat the purpose of jazz.
Please note I did not design the cover. The cover was designed long before I had come into the picture, so i worked around it. I work easily with others.
Film Festival Program Cover
This was a proposal for the 2008 Queer Lounge Cover at Sundance. I've designed the layout and pages for their program for the past four years.
I wanted a sense of "Old Hollywood Glamour". It also doesn't tell the whole story. It's a little cliff hanger. I never want to explain to much. I just want to grab their attention. I like to make my viewers to think or ponder on the image, rather than forget about it too quickly.

Horror Movie Posters
I've been hired by Black Gate and Island Gateway Films to design their horror film posters in 2007 and 2008. These are promotional posters used at Fangoria and for the marketing of these two films.
Basement Jack was actually a blurry snap shop from the set, that said it all. I had to make it in a few layers to hide the fact that the photo itself is not sharp.
Evilution is actually several photos shopped together. The zombie is one of the stunt players shot in the outdoor lighting and manipulated into the hideous dark monster you see now.
Theater Promo
This is four images photoshoped into one for CHICO'S ANGELS 4 Chicas are Forever. I wanted the James Bond glamour to describe how explosive this little troupe really is. The live show is a combination of a Latino prarody of Charlie's Angels and the Three Stooges in drag. I really wanted it to grab your attention.

Postcards
I design postcards for industry workshops and classes! The first is for a comedy character class to prepare you for an audition with MADtv or SNL. I wanted the information to be clean and I wanted as many character actors on the card to tell the viewer there are more characters to invent. Next postcard is for a Commercial audition class. I wanted kitchie, but with clean lines. Kirk really loved this ad.
